The Throne Shaken

London, June 13. - The ƒ ate of Sir ViUiam Gordon Cumming is sealed, as far as the array ís coneerned, for the f ollowing1 paragraph is published in the Official Gazette: "War Office, June 18, 1801.- Scots Quardi. Ma), and Lieut. Col. Sir Wihtam GOrdfln Cumnllng, baronet. Is removed from the army, ñer majesty having no further occasion for bis services. "Dated June 10, 1891." The storm rising round the prince of Wales is fast obtaining intensity, endangering his chances of succession to the throne, if not the existence of the English monarchy. No class appears to be stirred so deeply as the great middle class, the real strength of the country and hitherto a solid and stolid prop of the monarchy. Wherever the voice becomes audible its earnest denunciations of the prince of Wales are accompanied by regrets at his nearness to the throne. Representative gatherings of religious bodies - Congregational, Methodist, Baptist. Unitarian and íresbyterian - have already recorded their condemnations. Boards of guardians are going out of their accustomed paths to discuss motions branding the gambling propensities of the prince of Wales as a disgrace to the country. Several liberal societies have adopted protests against his continuance in the army. The agitation has every character of permanence. lt has not yet touched more than i. fringe of the political parties, but ere long the glowing fierceness of the popular heat must penétrate to the core of politics, causing party action within and without parliament.
